Well put indeed! I have been thinking a lot about that check-raise on the river and laying down to Gus and I'm almost convinced, although not quite. I just can't stop thinking about 58 and 56 being really reasonable hands Daniel can put Gus on in that spot. I think Gus would check-raise all-in with those holdings, so Daniel is usually correct in calling. I've got a post coming about this hand, actually.
But, that is but one hand. So many others, Daniel has done exactly as you describe. He's really having a bad night. If he was playing optimally, he would quit instead. The previews for next week seem to indicate, though, that we're going to see Daniel keep dumping.
